6:2 God spoke 1 to Moses and said to him, “I am the Lord. 2 6:3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as 3 God Almighty, 4 but by 5 my name ‘the Lord’ 6 I was not known to them. 7 6:4 I also established my covenant with them 8 to give them the land of Canaan, where they were living as resident foreigners. 9 6:5 I 10 have also heard 11 the groaning of the Israelites, whom the Egyptians are enslaving, 12 and I have remembered my covenant. 13 6:6 Therefore, tell the Israelites, ‘I am the Lord. I will bring you out 14 from your enslavement to 15 the Egyptians, I will rescue you from the hard labor they impose, 16 and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments. 6:7 I will take you to myself for a people, and I will be your God. 17 Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from your enslavement to 18 the Egyptians. 6:8 I will bring you to the land I swore to give 19 to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob – and I will give it to you 20 as a possession. I am the Lord!’”
